Derek Hemsley — FP Coach Education & Curriculum Development Lead
"We don't ever want to be a kid's last coach." 💙
Meet Derek Hemsley, our Coach Education & Curriculum Development Lead. When Derek talks about coaching at Free Play, he doesn't talk about wins and losses, he talks about being a cheerleader for every kid who walks through our doors.
Here's what Derek brings to our coaching team:
✨ A Master's degree in Coaching & Athletic Administration
✨ Experience from volleyball to hockey to everything in between
✨ A belief that coaching is about people first, sport second
Derek is developing a coaching framework that supports every coach, whether you're brand new or seasoned. When you coach at Free Play, you're not just teaching kids to play, you're learning skills for your professional career, your personal life, and your future.
Derek and our team make sure of that.
Want to be part of something bigger? We're always looking for coaches who want to grow alongside the kids they serve. 🏀⚽🏒
